4.科学卫星与技术试验卫星。研制发射硬X射线调制望远镜卫星、“实践九号”新技术试验卫星和返回式卫星。启动实施量子科学实验卫星和暗物质探测卫星等项目。
(三)载人航天
继续推进载人航天工程建设,加强关键技术攻关,为载人航天后续任务的圆满完成奠定基础。
发射“神舟九号”、“神舟十号”飞船,与已在轨飞行的“天宫一号”目标飞行器进行无人或载人交会对接。
发射空间实验室、载人飞船和货运飞船,突破和掌握航天员中期驻留、再生式生命保障及推进剂补加等空间站关键技术,开展一定规模的空间应用,为空间站建设进行技术准备。
开展载人登月前期方案论证。
4) Scientific satellites and technological test satellites
China will develop and launch a Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope satellite, Shijian-9 new technology test satellite, and returnable satellites. It will begin to implement projects of quantum science test satellite and dark matter probing satellite.
3. Human Spaceflight
China will push forward human spaceflight projects and make new technological breakthroughs, creating a foundation for future human spaceflight.
It will launch the Shenzhou-9 and Shenzhou-10 spaceships and achieve unmanned or manned rendezvous and docking with the in-orbit Tiangong-1 vehicle.
China will launch space laboratories, manned spaceship and space freighters; make breakthroughs in and master space station key technologies, including astronauts' medium-term stay, regenerative life support and propellant refueling; conduct space applications to a certain extent and make technological preparations for the construction of space stations.
China will conduct studies on the preliminary plan for a human lunar landing.
(四)深空探测
选择有限目标,分步开展深空探测活动。
按照“绕、落、回”三步走的发展思路,继续推进月球探测工程建设,发射月球软着陆和月面巡视勘测器,实现在月球的软着陆和巡视探测,完成月球探测第二步任务。启动实施以月面采样返回为目标的月球探测第三步任务。
开展深空探测专项论证,推进开展对太阳系行星、小行星和太阳的探测活动。
4. Deep-space Exploration
China carries out deep-space exploration in stages, with limited goals.
Based on the idea of "three steps" -- orbiting, landing and returning -- for continuing lunar probe projects, China will launch orbiters for lunar soft landing, roving and surveying to implement the second stage of lunar exploration. In the third stage, China will start to conduct sampling the moon's surface matters and get those samples back to Earth.
China will conduct special project demonstration in deep-space exploration, and push forward its exploration of planets, asteroids and the sun of the solar system.
